Joe, I fully agree with you when you say �'The use & sound of D, L, N, T v/s DD, LL,NN, TT'
Some words are commonly mis-spelt. e.g. dolle (and not dole) (eyes) Polle is not equal to pole (Polle=to see, pole=cheeks) Mannik (and not manik) (diamond) Mitt (and not mit) (salt)� IMO you've misspelt �Hoddo/Foddo (bald)�; it should be �"Khodd'ddo/i/em"�; but I've not found �what �Hodo/Fodo� in the dictionaries; could you clarify? I agree with �'The use & sound of D, L, N, T v/s DD, LL,NN, TT' Some words are commonly mis-spelt. e.g. dolle (and not dole) (eyes) Polle is not equal to pole (Polle=to see, pole=cheeks) Mannik (and not manik) (diamond) Mitt (and not mit) (salt)�. �How wud u write this English words/sounds in Konkani? To, do, go, door, top, toddy, nun, nuts.� Answer: �Tu, du, go, ddo, ttop, ttoddy, nan, natts�. �Translate this English into Konkani:with correct spellings (as above) Prayer, water, milk, money, heart, clean, sky, truth, way, warning, my share, hapiness.� Answer: �Magnnem, udok, dud, duddu, kalliz, nitoll (or nirmoll), mollob, sot, marg (or marog), xitkavnni, mhozo vantto, sukh (or khos)�.
